Usage

File-Based vs String-Based Projects

Crowdin supports two types of projects:

• File-Based Projects: Traditional localization workflow where you upload source files (JSON, XLIFF, Android XML, etc.) and download translated versions
• String-Based Projects: Content is managed as individual strings without file structure, ideal for web applications and dynamic content

Choose the appropriate node based on your project type.

Crowdin vs Crowdin Enterprise

• Crowdin (crowdin.com): For individuals and teams using the standard Crowdin platform
• Crowdin Enterprise: For organizations with dedicated Crowdin Enterprise instances (custom domain: {organization}.crowdin.com)

Example Workflow: Sync Translations

1. Add a Crowdin Trigger node to listen for file.translated events
2. Use the Crowdin node to build and download translations
3. Connect to your deployment pipeline or storage

Using with AI Agents

All nodes in this package have usableAsTool: true, making them compatible with n8n's AI Agent nodes. You can use them as tools for AI-powered automation workflows.

Workflow Templates

This package includes ready-to-use workflow templates:

| Template | Description | |----------|-------------| | Crowdin AI Translation Slack Bot | AI-powered translation assistant in Slack | | Crowdin AI Translation Teams Bot | AI-powered translation assistant in Microsoft Teams | | Crowdin to JIRA | Sync Crowdin issues to JIRA tickets | | Crowdin to Linear | Sync Crowdin issues to Linear issues | | JIRA to Crowdin | Create Crowdin tasks from JIRA tickets | | Linear to Crowdin | Create Crowdin tasks from Linear issues |
